The search function yielded no satisfactory results, so hopefully I'm not beating a dead horse.
Title says it all. No interest in upgrading injectors or turbo, since those things are quite expensive and I'm sure I can achieve satisfactory power in stock form.
Malone stage 2 recommends upgraded injectors, stage 3 recommends injectors and clutch. Are injectors recommended just for the sake of maximum power output? I'm also not afraid of roasting my clutch, as I don't intend to hot-rod it constantly. I'd just like to have the extra power available when required.
I'm already used to controlling my smoke level (in my truck) and mileage with my foot, so I'm not afraid of needing to do the same thing in my car. My power level is tolerable when I'm the only passenger and the AC is off. But put in three other people and crank the blower and it takes much longer to get up to speed than what I'd like.
~Update after Malone stage 3 chip installation 7-29-16~
Now that I've replaced my already-toasted clutch (it was slipping even when stock) and have broken the new one in a bit, I really think the Stage 3 is a great option for a stock engine. It only smokes if I really floor it beyond what it wants to take, and even then it doesn't smoke much. Running my IQ at 2.0 as well.
